Negative of a Group Photograph brings together three decades of
poems by the leading Iranian poet Azita Ghahreman. Born in Mashhad
in 1962 and based in Sweden since 2006, Ghahreman is the author of
five highly acclaimed collections. Her poems are lyrical and
intimate, addressing themes of loss, exile and female desire, as
well as the changing face of her country. Negative of a Group
Photograph runs the gamut of Ghahreman's experience: from her
childhood in the Khorasan region of south-eastern Iran to her exile
to Sweden, from Iran's book-burning years and the war in Iraq to
her unexpected encounters with love. The poems in this illuminating
collection are brought to life in English by the poet Maura Dooley,
working in collaboration with Elhum Shakerifar. Farsi-English dual
language edition co-published with the Poetry Translation Centre.
